Clinically Relevant Anatomy

CentraLineMan features clinically relevant landmarks and anatomy; learners can practice performing full venous catheterization using ultrasound guided or blind/landmark insertion approaches at the subclavian, supraclavicular, and internal jugular vein sites. CentraLineMan includes clinically relevant internal and external landmarks that are palpable and or visible under ultrasound. These include: 

• Upper torso and neck
• Trachea
• Clavicle
• Sternal notch
• Sternocleidomastoid muscle
• Sternal and clavicular heads of the sternocleidomastoid muscle
• Manubrium
• Lateral border of the first rib
• Superior vena cava
• Upper lung
• Vascular Anatomy including: External Jugular, Internal Jugular, Subclavian, and Brachiocephalic Veins; Carotid and Subclavian artery

Skill Development

• Practice full central venous catheterization using ultrasound guided or blind/landmark insertion approaches at the subclavian, supraclavicular, and internal jugular access sites.
• Practice placing patient in appropriate position per access site standards
• Gain experience in identifying and selecting appropriate access site based on patient anatomical variations
• Practice use of ultrasound for:
  • Developing psychomotor skills required for obtaining visualization during cannulation
  • Detecting anatomical variations
  • Distinguishing vessels
  • Visualizing arterial pulse and venous compression
  • Identifying anatomical location of target vessel
  • Visualizing needle cannulation of target vessel in transverse view
  • Visualize threading of guidewire in longitudinal axis view
  • Visualizing catheter placement
  • Reducing rate of mechanical complications due to anatomical variances such as: pneumothorax or arterial puncture.
  • Improving first cannulation success and decreasing needle passes
• Practice palpating external landmarks to identify vessel location
• Practice identifying unsuccessful vessel access by fluid feedback representing arterial puncture
